More delays for Saski

This is not the first time that the tender has been postponed. "In order for the tender to be a success we decided to give the companies a few additional days to prepare their offers," Rafał Pasieka, the vice director of the municipal public procurement office, told Gazeta Wyborcza.

In February 2004 a two-stage tender was announced for the reconstruction of the Saski Bruhl Palaces. Although three bidders were selected after the first stage, none of them entered the second stage. As a result, the tender was canceled. A second tender was announced in mid 2005, and after a first stage was settled in September, the following consortia were selected: Warbud SA with Kuryłowicz & Associates; Mitex together with Pracownia Konserwacji Zabytków Zamek; and Budimex Dromex. Little has changed since this round. The beginning of construction is scheduled for this summer.
